GRIGOR DIMITROV Early Career

Grigor Dimitrov was brought up a sporting family, with his father being a tennis coach and his mother a sports teacher and former volleyball player. His love affair with tennis began at age three when he was gifted a racquet by his mother. At the age of 14, Grigor took home his first international junior tournament. His success continued from there, and in 2008 he took home the Wimbledon and US Open junior grand slam tournaments. He obtained the junior number one world ranking and joined the ATP tour shortly after.

GRIGOR DIMITROV CAREER

Dimitrov’s career on the ATP tour hasn’t seen the same level of success that he’s experienced in the juniors. It would take him three years to finally break into the top 100 in the world rankings and another two to win his first ATP title. After the slow start to his professional career, Grigor really hit his stride in 2014 by reaching the quarterfinals of the Australian Open and semifinals of Wimbledon. He entered into the world top 10 rankings, becoming the first Bulgarian player to ever do so. Since then, Grigor has continued to be a top player on tour, displaying one of the best all around court games.
